Can you still buy parts for Model 70 Winchester?
Hello

I have a .338 Winchester Magnum Model 70 and would like to replace the follower, magazine box and magazine spring for a .375 H&H however,I can't find parts anywhere. I have tried gun-parts(numrich)and Brownells any suggestions.

Thanks

In the past as Winchester was shutting the doors I bought Winchester parts through Browning. (they are sister companies). I can't find any contact info right now but I believe they were in Logan or Morgan Utah.
Someone else asked this question a year or two ago and smebody posted an aftermarket source that I can't recall. you might try a search on this forum for the topic.
Good luck.

Is that for a pre or post 64 model?

YES - very easy and straight from Winchester. I have purchased parts from them direct many times. Here is a link that gives you all the info you need.
